Script Of "Candles" (TV)

ANNOUNCER [v/o]: Five years ago, George Bush stood under a "Mission Accomplished" banner and announced:

PRESIDENT BUSH [v/o]: Major combat operations in Iraq have ended.

(Text on screen: 5/1/03)

ANNOUNCER [v/o]: John McCain said the end of the Iraq war was "very much in sight."

(Text on screen: 4/9/03)

Now, we need to know how long we'd be in Iraq if John McCain were president.

(Text on screen: 10 Years? 20 Years? 50 Years? 100 Years?)

JOHN MCCAIN [v/o]: I don't think Americans are concerned if we're there for 100 years or 1,000 years or 10,000 years.

ANNOUNCER [v/o]: 100 years in Iraq? And you thought no one could be worse than George Bush.
